One of the few you g players on the team worth a damn is Kyle Dugger. Not sure Johnson would be the ideal target.
NT Davin Tomlinson, EDGE Leonard Floyd, LB Matt Milano are the players I think...

Historically, the Pats have spent at the top of the market when they have cap space, Roosevelt Colvin, Adalius Thomas, Stephon Gilmore. It’s a short list because they rarely have a lot of cap space...
Pats certainly won’t get any discounts from WR/TE. And the elite guys who can afford to take a little less likely couldn’t even be persuaded by NE coming in over the top. A guy like Allen Robinson...
Think about it... why is the WR position so valuable?
They can just flat out make plays for you if they’re great. They dictate coverage to free up the box and make reads easier on the QB.
Pitts...
Pitts isn’t just a TE to me. He’s a potential #1 option in the passing game. It’s very rare to bring that ability as a TE, but that makes it a special premium if you do. I’d take him over any of the...
So Wentz asked about #11, Pitman said he wanted to keep it and then Wentz said he was changing anyway? I’m calling total BS on that list part haha. He wouldn’t have asked if he didn’t want it.
...
A little different. They have actual cap space. They will be trying to recruit players. Last year they were right up to the cap all offseason. They made the deliberate attempt not to really...
Don't get me wrong, the dynamics of Cam being an assigned backup/mentor are different than him being a leader as the team's starter. But I don't know that anyone could have had a better attitude/work...
How is he immature? Great guy, great teammate.
No a bad idea on their end. For all the crap Cam gets, he looked to be an exemplary teammate who wen tout of his way to shoulder blame and try to help young guys develop. Not sure they could get a...
I took no offense to his comments. Some of us understand how the cap works, others don't. I was wording things a little ambiguously and I didn't take it as anything other than him just trying to...
I just don't agree with how you're looking at it. You aren't drafting "another QB". You're drafting Trey Lance, Justin Fields, etc. I think your evaluation of that specific player should drive...
What if you think the QB on the board (presumably Lance) is just special? I think you really gotta let your evaluation of the players dictate. You draft players, not positions. Gotta let your...
I can probably be clearer in how I word it, but in the post you quoted in this thread, I specifically said moving Mason post June 1st frees up $6.8M of "cap". And then in that other thread I just...
Hopefully BB is ad rejuvenated as me by sucking *** this year and being untalented all over the field because I've got a couple more guys I'd like to see NE potentially target:
LAC CB Michael...
Oh trust me, I know haha. I'm an accountant who's nerdy dream job is to be a salary cap guy for NFL or NBA team haha. The "reallocation" to Thuney or Andrews would be in the actual salary they saved...
Seemed an obvious move, no?
I'm assuming you guys will designate it as post June 1st which means it will ultimately save $3.5M (won't actually realize those savings right away, but that alone will be enough to take the hit for...
I think Howie needs to HONESTLY evaluate the QB position.
1) Be true to your scouting assessment on Hurts. Do no let the egg-on-your-face reaction if you replace him after taking him in round 2...
Under the radar trade candidate for NE could be RG Shaq Mason. If they trade him post June 1st, they save $6.8M on the cap. His new team would be getting him for 3 years, $20M with just $1.5M of this...
I'm optimistic NE will do this and probably more. Whether for Cam or someone else. NE has not generally had cap space like they do now because they've usually had really great players on their team....
Not sure he'd get past MIA at #18 with Brian Flores down there.
Hightower plays a very unique role for NE. It takes a unique physical profile to be able to do all of the things they ask of him and...
Jags, Jets and Pats all have $60M in cap space with needs at TE. I'd guess that one of them would throw a 5th or 6th rounder at PHI for Ertz if it ever came down to cutting him.
Really zeroing in on Tulsa LB Zaven Collins as the pick for NE at #15. Fits the scheme like a glove in the Hightower role. I don't think they can afford to move back past MIA at #18 and still get him...
You've brought it up, but Darnold is interesting for you guys if Ben retires or gets cut.
